Militant crackdown in Rangamati: 44 ‘militants’ sent to jail, 5 KNF members remanded

A Rangamati court on Tuesday sent 44 suspected members of militant outfit Jama'atul Ansar Fil Hindal Sharqiya, who were arrested in different anti-militant drives in the district, to jail in separate cases.

The court also put five members of the armed separatist group Kuki-Chin National Front (KNF) on a five-day remand.

Rangamati Senior Judicial Magistrate Swarna Komol passed the order when police produced 49 members of Jamatul Ansar Fil Hindal Sharqiya and Kuki-Chin National Front (KNF) before the court.

Earlier in the day, the militants were taken to the court amid tight security.

Law enforcers conducted separate drives in the hilly areas of Rangamati and Bandarban districts and arrested 50 militants Jamatul Ansar Fil Hindal Sharqiya and KNF members recently.
